Asked by:

Same product id

Question

How do I make sure that when I create a Universal App to replace a Windows Phone 7 app that the product ids align and people who have bought the WP7 version, get free access to the UA version(s) - both phone and Windows.

Thanks Herro, but this WP7 was released before we had the option of reserving a name and since then someone has reserved the name. I was quick in reserving names, but not quick enough in this case. When they started reserving names, preference was not
given to those already uing the names.

The problem appears to be that there is missing information on the existing app. So even if I choose a different new name, it will still be compared to blank. With almost 4K downloads, I do not want to break the link to the old app. What would be useful
would be to allow a publisher to edit existing their apps That were approved before name approval was introduced.

Being able to edit publisher information would also be useful. I seem to have acquired a variety of publisher names and ids.
